silence that overwhelmed her, silence that scared her, silence that worried her.
She was soon regretting ever coming.
Did she even want to be there?
The silence was getting to her;
she couldn’t handle it.
Was this overwhelming silence worth it?
Everything changed;
there was a wave of sound.
She stood where she was as the wave hit her.
She had waited for this moment.
Her heart was racing.
She closed her eyes and let the sound in.
The sound was surprising and exciting and amazing.
The sound- the reason she had come- embraced her.
It wrapped her in it’s arms.
She felt free.
The sound gave her that freedom.
The sound stopped;
it’s embrace left her.
The silence had returned for her.
She opened her eyes.
Will the short moment of beauty been enough?
Had it been enough for her?
For now, it had to be.
She would experience it again;
she knew it that she would.
